With all the drama about the Jets’ quarterback situation and Rex Ryan, the storyline expected to get the most attention this week has been ignored — Darrelle Revis is returning to MetLife Stadium on Sunday.
Revis, who was traded to the Bucs in April, appears to be ready to go for Sunday’s game. It is a delicious subplot to this game with Revis making his return to the field against the Jets who dealt him away.
Will rookie Geno Smith dare throw Revis’ way? Will the fans boo or cheer when Revis takes the field? Will he get an interception and ruin Jets’ fans day?
It is going to be fascinating to watch. One thing about Revis is he usually plays his best when the spotlight is brightest, and it will be shining on him this week. I think the Jets will stay away from Revis other than maybe testing him on one long throw.
Revis Island is back. Will the Jets get lost on it?
